WELCOMING SERVICE... As the new corp members shows gratitude to God
The Redeem Christian Church of God, the Generational Parish Ise Orun Ekiti State has welcomed the new corp members batch C1 and C2 into their mist.
The welcoming service which took place at the church auditorium, Youth generational parish Ise Orun Ekiti State feature all the events by the corp members .
However, the Topic for the awesome event was SERVICE AND SACRIFICE which the preacher Comrade Joseph Etok high lighted some fact about SERVICE AND SACRIFICE.
Sacrifice is a word that comes to mind when we think about the truth and realities embedded in the gospel.
SERVICE, however is a work done by one person or group that benefits another.
Furthermore, SACRIFICE is the act of losing or surrendering something as the results of penalty.
Biblically, SACRIFICE is giving to the Lord whatever HE requires of, our Time, our
Earthly Possessions, and our Energies to further His work. Our willingness to sacrifice is an indication of our Service to God.
One central element of SACRIFICE and selfless love is SERVICE. It's a powerful reminder not only that Jesus died for our sins, but that we too are called to love and help others. Matthew 19:29 and Mark 10:45.
Blessings of SACRIFICE; when we care, when we are charitable, when we are Obedient to God and His Prophets. Our SERVICE and SACRIFICE will bring forth the blessings of Heaven. John 12: 26.
Your service to God is exemplifies by your actions in your family, community and place of work. Serving God shouldn't be done for recognitions or praise. It should be self seeking, not because you want something from him in return. Serve selflessly, seek His Kingdom and every other things shall be added to you.
How then, do you show Service to God?
1: Pray for each other. Ephesians 6:18
2: Share and give to those in need. Hebrew 13: 16
3: Give encouragement. 1st Thessalonians 5:11
4: Work with intention and Joy. Philippians 2:14-15
5: Spread God's word. Psalm 96:3.
In conclusion, the Benefits of SACRIFICE and SERVICE prepared us to live in the presence of God and help us to enjoy eternal life.
